This is like asking a group of strangers to tell you what kind of woman to
marry. What could be more personal and idiosyncratic than choosing a
programming editor?

There are many good ones, and you haven't told us which platform you are on.

I read that last sentence as:
"There are many types of people, and you haven't told us whether you're
into blondes, brunettes, or redheads."

Silly analogy time!

Windows => brunette (most common, nothing special)
Linux => blonde (more fun, and brunettes often bleach to blonde)
MacOS X => redhead (sexy!)
